Flights to Marston, Grantham from

Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Marston could be a piece of cake or it could drag on forever. We've pulled together some handy travel tips that will help you start your next big adventure on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Traveling on a plane can be a pleasure if you take the right gear. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare set of clothes and a good read. Next, find room in your hand luggage for your electronic devices, chargers, medications and maybe a proper neck pillow too. Lastly, remember to bring your passport, travel documents and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Pointed or sharp objects, like your treasured Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, chemicals agents and fireworks, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your priority is to feel as comfortable as possible. Go for a pair of slip-on shoes, dress in loose, natural fibers and don't forget to bring a jacket in case it gets chilly in the cabin.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clotting due to poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression tights or socks.

The answer is simple — be prepared. We've pulled together some tips and tricks for a stress-free trip through security. Watch out Marston, here you come:

• Airport security personnel first need to determine that you have a valid passport and matching travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Keep them close by.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to beep. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• All electronic gadgets, including your tablet and phone, must also be scanned separately.
• Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or hairspray, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you a few precious minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight sneakers usually aren't.
• Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked luggage.
